    i mean, people have innovated in the areas they care already.

    no one really cares that much about audio on phone calls. as long as they’re understandable.

    people added video because it adds to the communication. spatial audio will not. it will only become common if one or two of these mega corps decide to shoehorn it into ever device. not because people actually want it or care.

    might be a lucrative patent if we ever get holograms though

      … You realize this has been innovated because someone cares, right?

      Like this is such a silly argument. “Why would we make cars not use steam? If people cared about it we would have already innovated!”

      so you are saying that all the innovation and research should be stopped, because if we care about any specific problem, it is already solved, and if it isn’t, it is proof we don’t care? 😆

      that… is not how it works.

          yeah, because in the world of audio/video content, who would care about quality of sound, right?

          and even if people would actually not care, it still doesn’t mean that someone won’t be able to sell it to them.
